Yesterday my cat ate packing tape. Not sure how much. He swallowed it before I could get it out of his mouth. He was okay all day until the evening when I gave him a couple of kitty treats. A couple minutes later he started to puke up the treats and continued to gag around the house for 20 mins. The tape never came up. Should I take him to the vet? Should I be worried?

We went to the vet this morning and they gave him some meds to help pass the tape. If he can't keep the meds/ food down then we will have to do surgery. But right now he has kept it down.

Thank you for the update. Many prayers for your sweet kitty to pass that stuff. I am believing for that, not surgery.:nod:
